Former Billionaire and eminent rapper Kanye West has stirred up controversy yet again. A few weeks ago, he ranted on his social media accounts and made some anti-semitic comments. People around the world bashed Ye, as he is officially known, for his views.

Moreover, Adidas broke all ties with Kanye which is the reason why he isn’t a Billionaire anymore. On top of all such issues, West’s school, Donda Academy is also rumored to be shut down.

Athletes and celebrities all across the world have given their opinions on West and former NBA superstar Robert Horry recently chimed in on the conversation.

Talking on his podcast, Horry talked about how he doesn’t feel bad about Kanye. However, he does sympathize with the students and staff of the Donda Academy.

Horry said, “I feel bad for all those kids, those students, and teachers at the Donda Academy. Those people, you know, put their faith in him and I don’t know why they put their faith on the f*cking loon because you can’t do that.”

The Kanye West-founded Donda Academy is a Christian prep school rumored to be located in California’s Simi Valley. Amidst all the controversy, there were reports of the academy closing down. However, the latest sources claimed that the school was back to normal functioning after being closed down for a brief period of time.

Brown said, “In light of that, after sharing in conversations, I now recognize that there are times when my voice and my position can’t coexist in spaces that don’t correspond with my stance or my values. And, for that reason, I am terminating my association with Donda Sports.”
